Converting 6Vdc to 12Vdc
Hi,
I am a new at doing conversions with electricity. I have a 40 Buick Special 8, straight 8. What I was wondering is with the starter, converting it to 12V or would it pose a problem leaving it as 6V? I assume it would. Would it burn the starter out or just make it spin faster? Also with the generator, how is that going to work out or will I have to put an alternator on it? If so does anyone know of where I could get brackets for such an application? Sorry for the ignorant questions!I want to get it out on the street but I want it to be 12V when it gets out there. Sooner or later I plan on putting a Chevy 350 in her. So I am going to be asking a lot more questions about frame and suspension also!
Any help with this is much appreciated!
Thanks!
Dammit, another good ol boy gone. Condolence to the family. RIP Mike
